we have to protect them against china. mitt romney got something right in his debate against the president when he said he's not afraid of toughening sanctions against china for currency manipulation because he said, people say they're going to cut off the trade. they make an enormous amount of money out that have trade, why would they cut it off? agreed. why would the chinese shut down the navigation routes in which they make an enormous amount of money? it's like domino's deciding to tear up the streets so they couldn't deliver the pizza but we are spending money on a navy that protects every shipping lane everywhere in the world as if we were the only ones who had that interest. now let me get this one. surprising from conservatives. to airlift humanitarian aid anywhere in the world. now, i wish we were doing more in haiti. i wish we were doing more to stop children from dying of illness in africa. but we have to give humanitarian aid anywhere in the world to our wealthy allies and others? frankly i wish we were better
